Poor kid? He touched hands with how many Milan players?

I think most of us are jealous.

 

[nuttela]

yeah but he didnt touch ignazio's

the kids beside him are the kids i envy

not the palermo kid that got rejected, tho i feel sorry for him

 

[BrasilianMilan]

bwahahahaha!!

This is the most beautiful picture I've seen. Stealing it.

The top picture is SO FUNNY. I absolutely laughed my ass off when I saw that little kid's expression on his face. Fucking Palermo, they deserve it

Abate holding the Scudetto in that picture looks amazingly fantastic! Love it

 

[joyrider]

best driven RB in the world, i hope cracks the nads of all udinese

FORZA ABATE

 

[Ajacied]

Abate is a warrior

ITALY NATIONAL TEAM COACH PRANDELLI ON ABATE

"Abate has had a great season, but also Cassani and Maggio have done well. For now, I plan to work more or less with the same players that I’ve called up recently, but I’ll keep an eye on Abate and if he keeps it up, sooner or later he could be part of my group."

There's a friendly against Trap's Ireland after Euro Qualifier vs Estonia! Give him debut at least in that match you @$$#0L3!!

Edit: Today’s Corriere dello Sport has quoted Milan full-back Ignazio Abate as saying:

“I’ll tell my son, who will be born in November, that I won a league title. With a little bit more experience this Milan side could win the Champions League. Zlatan? He’s a perfectionist. When I miss a pass I become one of his preferred targets, but he likes me”.

Does he mean Ibra shouts at him if he misplaces a pass?

 

[nuttela]

abate won the freaking league, he is young. and the best right back in italy.

are you waiting for him to become a milan captain or something.

hurry up prandelli... italy are in desperate need of his awesomeness

 

[This Is Milan]

Well that's ridiculous.

Abate has been the best Italian RB this season - by far - showing that he can cope with the likes of C. Ronaldo and Eto'o while being part of Serie A's best defense.

Maggio and Cassani aren't bad but nowhere near greatness either. Add to that that both of them don't have great international experience or age on their side I can't understand Prandelli.

Guess we've got to continue suffering a painfully average Italian NT

 

[Ibracadabralove]

I think abate should join the NT aswell, last time i saw italy play they were kinda shit so remaking the squad is maybe what you need even tho u won wc not so long ago

 

[Armin__m]

Starting to dislike Prandelli for making certain decisions, Abate and Abbiati deserve a starting spot in the national team for the way they play..

 

[Desc]

seriously

even from objective pov its clear that Abate deserves a called up to nt

he's in no way inferior to Cassani and Maggio this season imo

i could understand him not calling Abbiati though considering his age

 

[Dottore Joey]

Abate>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Cassani+Maggio

 

[Ajacied]

Ridiculous decision... Abate deserves this!

 

[Charbel]

I'm actually a tad happy he's not called up by the national team. He still has a lot to do to improve and become one of the best, and I'd love to see him work hard and earn that...a national team call-up may get his ego a bit too high + less time to work on his game. It's OK for now if he's not being called up for the NT, he willl be inshallah for the 2014 WC...

 

[Sven]

Abate is our second best tackler in Serie A. 86 tries / 75 succesful, only behind Gattuso who is unbeatable (what a wall on the right side btw).

This rate of success is very impressive - 87%. If one consider tackles by playing time, he is more or less on par with Van Bommel and Ambro - still very good.


Not at all impressed by Flamini tackles though. Only 27 tries / 22 succesful.

 

[Susan]

I really enjoyed watching Abate live at San Siro, he's a tireless runner and ppl really like him, he gets much applause when doing something great on defense or going forward.

Boss

Agreed, just bursts down that flank and the fans love him and it's just so easy to see why, never gives up, no such thing as a lost cause and christ on a bike he is so so fast isn't he!

 

[samir10]

fu prandelli! look what biased lippi did last wc with cassano and where italy ended. historia magistra vitae est.

Was this kid Prandelli's son?

 

[Shevagool]

I feel a bit sad for this kid. Not that proffesional from Abate..

 

[dman32]

how about that....."The Turbo"

 

[diavoli7]

i'm confused as to how santon hasn't done anything since he played well agains ronaldo and he gets to play for italy while abate has been great for a whole season yet he still needs to prove himself consistently to prandelli?

 

[milanator]

I feel a bit sad for this kid. Not that proffesional from Abate..

I think, Abate simply didn´t saw him, because he looked on the podium.

 

[theduck7]

Why has Abate been left out the Italy team yet again?-It's a joke!

 

[nuttela]

prandellli probably wants abate to establish himself as the best rb in the world. maybe a call up now would make abate think he is good enough (which he is).

this is my scenario, i hope it is true. maybe hhe knows abate's growth is exponential and he is waiting for the right time to use him. we all know tho, he'll be there in 2012.

if he isnt... riots on the streets

 

[SpartanMilan]

It is just so dumb he hasnt called him up... Maggio isnt a real RB and Santon hasnt done much of anything in 2 years and still he wont give a starter on the best team in the league a chance...

Its really getting weird how he is ignoring him
